Terms and Conditions

All monies raised must be used towards the stated intention. Awarded funds may not be applied towards projects that will generate profit for individuals.

The program is an “all or nothing” fundraiser. If an organization does not hit its initial goal in the time allotted, the funds will not be directly awarded. The funds collected during an incomplete fundraiser will be distributed into a general fund to benefit student-life programs at the discretion of the Office of Alumni Relations and The Northeastern Fund.

If an organization hits their goal before the assigned deadline, they can opt to continue to raise funds toward a stretch goal. All funds collected past the initial goal, even if the stretch goal is not hit, will be distributed to the student group. These funds MUST be applied towards the stated project.

Students are responsible for promoting their own fundraiser, preparing a personal thank you message to donors, submitting monthly updates on the status of the project, and upon invitation, taking part in a showcase event.

Projects must be completed within one year of a successful program fundraiser.

Multi-stage projects may be broken into multiple fundraisers if stages can be defined by a completed product, event, activity, or service.

The Office of Alumni Relations and The Northeastern Fund reserves the right to decline any projects based on content or discontinue an active fundraiser at any time due to any changes in the student group’s eligibility status.

To ensure compliance with university policies, projects must be approved by your campus activities program manager.
